This resource focuses on developing students' skills in solving multi-step addition and subtraction word problems. It outlines a systematic 4-step strategy for tackling these problems: Read, Plan, Solve, and Check. Students are guided through identifying key information, determining the order of operations, writing equations, and verifying their answers. The document includes worked examples, faded practice problems, and independent practice exercises at varying levels of difficulty to encourage mastery of the concepts. Additionally, there is a self-assessment checklist for students to reflect on their problem-solving process, and an exit ticket challenge to apply what they've learned in a real-world scenario.
